Council of Europe Grants European Forum Participatory Status

We are very happy that the European Forum of LGBT Christian Groups (EF) has been granted participatory status in the Council of Europe.

The Council of Europe is the continent’s leading Human Rights organisation. All 47 member states have signed the European Convention of Human Rights. With this decision, the Council affirms that listening to the perspectives of minorities is crucial when dealing with questions of Human Rights. The EF is now among the 300 plus international non-governmental organisations (INGOs) that have been granted participatory status, giving a voice to LGBT people of faith.
